Because of you, I face the world with pride,
Because you are the breeze I drift upon
In heaven flows from your eyes,
Even though I've told lies,
It always seems so long
Since we made love this strong,
I think it's time we tried,
To bring these dreams alive and drain 'em dry

Well I was born a blue melody
A little song my mama sang to me
It was a blue melody
Such a blue
You've never seen

There ain't no wealth
That can buy my pride

Seems like in every hip conversation honey
People brag about where they all come from
Seems like in every hip conversation, woman
I just end up sucking on my thumb
Lord I'm just a I'm just a pauper,
I been raised in a trailer park yeah,
Ain't got that much honey to brag about
I just drinkin' all alone in the dark

Just like a buzzin' fly
I come into your life
Now I float away
Like honey in the sun
Was it right or wrong
I couldn't sing that song anyway

Oh, but darlin'

Well, come along and walk with me
And learn the songs that lovers sing
When they believe

We'll dance along the river's edge
Just arm and arm along the moonlit shore
The midnight cries

You caught me staring so gently
You tease me and turn away
Unlike the young ones
Your movements you savor
Like a tango
My hideaways are longing for you
You shyly conjure
These moments surrounding

Sometimes I think about Saturday's child
And all about the times when we were running wild
I've been out searching for the dolphins in the sea
Ah, but sometimes I wonder, do you ever, ever think of me

Ah, this old world will never change, ah, the way it's been
And all the ways of war just can't change it back again
I've been out searchin' for the dolphins in the sea

Lady time, fly away.
I've been thinkin'
'Bout my yesterdays.

Oh please, listen darlin'
To my empty prayer:
Sleep inside my dreams tonight.
All I need to know tonight,

( Larry Beckett )

The antique people are down in the dungeons
Run by machines and afraid of the tax
Their heads in the grave and their hands on their eyes
Hauling their hearts around circular tracks
Pretending forever their masquerade towers
Are not really riddled with widening cracks

I saw you walking
Only yesterday
When I ran to catch you
You disappeared
And the street was gray

The candle died
Now you are gone

Well I wish I was your sweet little honey man,
Just a hanging 'round the rising sun,
You know you can't hold out against a boy who's
A whiskey fast and a honey slow;
I wish I was, I wish I was your,
I wish I was your honey man,
I wish I was your, sweet little honey man;
And when the bee's inside the hive,

Summer princess, midnight maiden
When I first saw you I just breathed
Into your smile my past went fadin'
Inside your voice, my mind was sheathed
In lost lagoon, we waited, wadin'
Along the streets we went paradin'
Never looking back to where we'd been

I never asked to be your mountain
I never asked to fly
Remember when you came to me
And told me of his lies
You didn't understand my love
You don't know why i try
And the rain was falling on that day
And damn the reason why

Now the sun sits on my hand
O where are you ?
Walking the wind I fly above the shore of the town
To the hills where I can hear
The harbor bells ring slavery
Where the fortune teller sighs to me
O I see your woman in the raw
Ride a mare of stone and howl

It happens every time.
Give my love,
She leaves me behind.
It happens every time.
The sorrow makes me lose my mind.
If she'd only be as true as I am,
And listen to my love that's sayin',

O whither has my lady wandered?
I'll search until I know I've found her

One green day she left her wings
And cut away her childhood strings
But dropping smiles along the trail
She left a trace I will not fail

Let the sun sing in your smile
Let the wind hold your desire
Let your womans voice run through your veins
Let her be your blood don't feel ashamed

She's your home when no one wants you
She'll give you life when you're so tired
She'll ease your fears ah when you're a stranger

I was lost without a song without a melody
You came into my hotel life
You made my room a home
Ah now, mama, don’t you know what you done

Ah, you made the sunshine in the city
Oh, you warmed my heart
You changed an old man filled with pity

Under a loop of stars in the vulgar cold
The dead airport lay
By the pebbles of the highway
Through the snail clouds
You soared to your lover
I hurried away my darling
With a howl in my throat

( Larry Beckett )

I lit my purest candle close to my
Window, hoping it would catch the eye
Of any vagabond who passed it by,
And I waited in my fleeting house

Before he came I felt him drawing near;

Once I was a soldier
And I fought on foreign sands for you
Once I was a hunter
And I brought home fresh meat for you
Once I was a lover
And I searched behind your eyes for you
And soon there'll be another
To tell you I was just a lie

Drops of persperation johnny
Coming over me hey buddy
Pour another glass of cola
Pass it to me

Round of coca cola
Add some sweet potato to it
You know everybody wants to get a peanut butter heart

If a fiddler played you a song, my love,
And if I gave you a wheel
Would you spin for my heart and loneliness?
Would you spin for my love?

If I gave up all of my pride for you
And only loved you for now
Would you hide my fears and never say:

You don't remember what to say, Lord
You don't remember what to do, Lord
You don't remember where you've been
And you don't remember who to choose

You wheel and you steal
But you're feeling honey when you kneel down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down

Your sweet love is like a quicksand
Pullin' me under and I wonder
How deep does it go

Oh, the sky is closin' up above me
Every time you touch me
I'm like a tiger now, prowlin' in the moonlight

Sally go round the roses
Sally go round the roses
Sally go round the roses
Sally go round the roses

Oh, Sally don't you go down
Oh, Sally don't you go down

Sefronia shook the black cat's bone at me
And I was only wax in the spell of fire
Oh my coal black nigger,
When black coal burns it ripens
She pried the whip out of her master's hand
And lashed at her own skin
So she'd be master, how could she know
This was just a dream born,

I couldn't buy you with a hundred cattle
But you hike in shells and feathers
Up the African beach,
I am king here, tied to this hut by the King's chain
My power's like a tree and green taboo to me

The chameleon lies in your dusty fingers,
And blue flies circle your head like stars;

In my heart is where I long for you
In my smile I search for you
Each time you turn and run away
I cry inside my silly way
Just too young to know anymore

In my world the devil dances and dares
To leave my soul just anywhere

When I sing I can't bring everything on the wing
Flying down from dizzy air
To the ground because I care
You will be love and your love will live

When I smile I beguile all the while every mile
As I walk across the sky
Of the clockwork of your eye

With your beautiful hair
And your sixteen years
You kissed me as I lay still

If I can see you never
Then I'll sleep forever
All my lonely love to kill

Just like the sun chase the moon around,
Just like the fox--he chase the rabbit down,
Well I've been wantin' you woman,
But it ain't no habit,
No don't you come too near me,
'Cause I'm a liable to grab it:
'Cause I'm a stone in love,
I can almost taste it, I can almost taste it,

Deep down in my heart
I can''t tell what it is
But it won''t let go
It happens every time
I give you more than what I have
But now all I need is a little time to sing this song
And I think we''re gonna find a way to lose this strange feelin''

Now you wanna know the reason
Why I cheated on you?
Well I had to be a hunter again.
This little man had to try
To make love feel new again.

'Cause there's just a few things, honey
I'm not old enough to do for you. Ohh.

As she steps near me, my blood feels the chance
All spinning and swirling, it yearns for the dance
To become part of me poor one, to take part of her

Don't say that tomorrow will bring me her love
Don't let me wait for words undestined from above
Let me laugh through her fingers and smile through her hair
Let me love the one I see, for I know that she's there

Well let me tell all you pretty women
One tiny word of advice
Tell you pretty woman
One tiny word of advice
Just do me one favor
Won't you understand your man

You gotta wake up in the mornin'
